So Eurovision 2011 has been and gone. I am sorry, but I have to uncover yet another pet hate of mine. When a performer winks at the camera, I have to have a sick bag on hand. Yuk yuk yuk! And all you lovely Americans need not pretend you don’t know what I am talking about, ‘cos I heard that more people in the States watch Eurovison than the Superbowl.
I was sadly not at home to watch Eurovision ( boo hoo hoo ha ha) this year, but when I saw some of the repeats, I caught one of Blue – the UK entrants wink at the camera during their performance. Hideous! Horrible! Cheap! It has a place next to White loafers in my list of nasty things wrong with the so called civilized world.
